Super easy to make, it’s the perfect side dish for thanksgiving, christmas, easter or, really, just a regular ol’ dinner. 

Now, if you’ve never had corn casserole, it’s kind of like a moist and creamy version of cornbread. 

Savory with a hint of sweetness and filled with little pockets of sweet corn kernels.

Totally basic but incredibly delicious, it’s a fantastic compliment to just about any meal.

Tips & Tricks

1. When measuring out your flour and cornmeal, fluff in the container then scoop into your measuring cup with a spoon and level off. Don’t dunk the cup straight into the bag as you’ll likely use too much.
2. Be sure to measure the dairy free sour cream in a dry measuring cup. It won’t level off correctly in a liquid one.
3. You can use either yellow or white fine ground cornmeal – both will work just fine. 
4. Keep in mind that the casserole firms up as it cools. If you serve it warm from the oven, it won’t slice like you see in the photos (these were taken when the casserole was no longer warm and at room temperature).

Substitutions

• You can use plain unsweetened dairy free yogurt in place of the sour cream. I did test the recipe once this way and it works fine. However, the flavor of the finished casserole is definitely better when you go with the sour cream. 
• I would imagine that pure maple syrup could be used in place of the honey but I haven’t tried it myself.
• If you don’t want to use frozen corn kernels, you can use one can of sweet corn, drained really well.
• Want to switch things up? Try stirring some sliced green onion, minced jalapeno or chopped fresh herbs into the batter.

How To Store

Fridge: Let the casserole cool completely then transfer to an airtight container. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Rewarm gently before enjoying.
